What an unforgettable adventure for our 6th grade students from ACGC at the Science Museum of Minnesota!
Our young scientists spent the day immersed in hands-on learning, curiosity, and discovery as they explored some of the museum’s most exciting and thought-provoking exhibits:
SPORTSOLOGY had students testing their agility and coordination while discovering how the human body moves during sports. From sprinting to swinging, our students became the experiment as they learned the science behind physical performance!
In the Light Gallery, students were dazzled by colors, frequencies, and reflections. With rainbow lights and optical illusions, they gained a deeper understanding of how light shapes our world.
The Human Body Gallery was a fan favorite! From examining preserved organs to measuring their own blood volume, students had the chance to explore the complexities of the human body — and even learn how a sneeze can spread disease!
In the Dinosaurs & Fossils Gallery, they journeyed back in time to walk among giants. With real fossilized bones, petrified wood, trilobites, and towering dinosaurs like the 80-foot Diplodocus, students stepped into the shoes of paleontologists searching for secrets from Earth’s ancient past.
Butterfly Odyssey took them on a colorful, interactive journey through the rainforest. They crawled through chrysalis chambers, sniffed rainforest scents, and learned about sustainable practices that protect butterfly habitats and communities around the world. The awe on their faces said it all!
But perhaps the biggest highlight of the day — quite literally — was the Omni Theatre experience featuring a breathtaking documentary on Blue Whales. With the screen wrapping around them, students were immersed in the story of the world’s largest animal, learning about the impact of human activity on ocean ecosystems and the hopeful comeback of these ocean giants.
From fossils to fair trade, muscles to metamorphosis — this field trip sparked excitement, deepened understanding, and reminded our students just how fascinating science can be.
Thank you to the Science Museum of Minnesota for making this day so meaningful, and thank you to our amazing students and staff for being curious, respectful, and full of wonder. The world is your classroom — and today, it got a little bigger!
Congratulations to Eliza Stegeman! She is the 2nd place winner of the county-wide 5th grade art contest, “Healthy Choices, Bright Futures!"
The talented young artists captured the spirit of substance use prevention with creativity, thoughtfulness, and vision.

On Saturday, the 7th/8th grade band and choir attended the "Trills and Thrills" music festival. The day began with adjudicated performances at Highland Park High School in St. Paul where the band and choir both received an "Excellent Rating". Another participating choir, Proctor High School, performed the same song as our choir, and they decided to have an extra special music making experience singing "True Colors" together! After the festival, the band and choir students demonstrated even more vocal musical talent screaming their lungs out at ValleyFair, where fun was had by all!
Students created Tie Dye T-shirts in FUNdamentals in Science with Mrs. Jans.

History Comes Alive: ACGC Students Explore West Central Minnesota's Past
Today ACGC 6th grade students embarked on an immersive journey through local history, visiting two significant sites: the Forest City Stockade and the Grand Army of the Republic (G.A.R.) Hall in Litchfield. These excursions provided a vivid window into the lives of early settlers and Civil War veterans, offering invaluable lessons about our community's heritage.
🏰 Forest City Stockade: A Glimpse into Pioneer Life
At the Forest City Stockade, students stepped back into the 1860s, experiencing firsthand the challenges faced by settlers during the Dakota War of 1862. The original stockade was hastily constructed on September 3, 1862, as a defensive measure against attacks during the conflict . The reconstructed site now serves as a living history museum, featuring authentic log buildings like a blacksmith shop, schoolhouse, and general store . Through interactive exhibits and reenactments, students gained insights into the resilience and resourcefulness of early Minnesotans.
🏛️ G.A.R. Hall: Honoring Civil War Veterans
In Litchfield, the students visited the Grand Army of the Republic Hall, one of the few remaining authentic G.A.R. halls in the United States . Established in 1885 by Civil War veterans, the hall stands as a tribute to those who served in the Union forces. Inside, students explored exhibits featuring original artifacts, including uniforms, flags, and personal items belonging to the veterans . The visit offered a profound connection to the sacrifices made during the Civil War and the enduring legacy of those who fought for unity and freedom.
🧠 Educational Impact
These field trips provided more than just a history lesson; they fostered a deeper appreciation for the rich tapestry of our local heritage. By engaging directly with historical sites and artifacts, students developed a tangible understanding of the events and individuals that shaped West Central Minnesota.
👏 Thank You
A heartfelt thank you to the educators, volunteers, and community members who made these enriching experiences possible. Your dedication to preserving and sharing our history ensures that future generations remain connected to the stories that define our community.
